The childhood of a Tibetan grand lama | SLICE

[@tenzinsherab370]

This video must have found its way to KZbin almost after 30 years as per my rough calculation. I can still vividly remember receiving Cha Wang (Palm/Hand Blessing) from young Kalu Rimpoche while Rimpoche and his entourage slowed their vehicle to give blessing to the Monggar Primary School students who were lined up on the roadside on their en route to Samdrup Jongkhar/Tashigang.

[@condorX2]

This article about old Tibet is worth sharing. "History clearly reveals that the old Tibet was not the Shangri-La that many imagine", he wrote "but a society under a system of feudal serfdom." Until 1959, when China cracked down on Tibetan rebels and the Dalai Lama fled to northern India, around 98% of the population was enslaved in serfdom. Drepung monastery, on the outskirts of Lhasa, was one of the world's largest landowners with 185 manors, 25,000 serfs, 300 pastures, and 16,000 herdsmen. High-ranking lamas and secular landowners imposed crippling taxes, forced boys into monastic slavery and pilfered most of the country's wealth - torturing disobedient serfs by gouging out their eyes or severing their hamstrings. Perhaps the reason the Dalai Lama is smiling in all those photos has something to do with the six-figure salary he pulled down from the U.S. government during the 1960s. According to declassified intelligence documents, he earned $180,000 in connection with the CIA's funding of the Tibetan Resistance to the tune of $1.7 million per year. The idea was to disrupt and hamper China's infrastructure. 💡

Then he was found in this incarnation and it was announced at all his shrines. I was astounded he was dead because in my dreams he was so very real. Now at 80, I know this was a blessing that had a profound upon my spiritually. If you think this is bullsh*te, just wait until you last illness comes at the time of your death.

This is cool and all... and I say this as someone who has met the Dalai Lama three times (very nice and wise guy), and stayed in a Dharamsala monastery for 5 months, but I think it's kind of messed up to deprive children of their childhood because of an unfounded belief in reincarnation. Even the Dalai Lama said that when Buddhist doctrine conflicts with science, go with science. Go ahead, bring on the criticism, but if reincarnation were verifiable we would know about it by now. The only tenuous evidence we have is the contentious research of one man, Dr. Ian Stevenson, whose research hasn't been able to be replicated. And Tibetan boys (always boys... go figure) selecting three of the same toys as their predecessors. I'm not sure anyone who believes in that knows how statistics work.

[@freyamckenzie5583]

Buddhism is everything which God is except they don't believe in The Creator God at The Helm. The Monks who go searching for their Dalai Lama are like The Three Wise Men, they move with The Wind and they can't be wrong. A little more than the child choosing three recognisable toys is involved.

This isn't how it works. They do not just randomly choose children based on looks. In most cases the Lama will leave instruction about which region he will be reborn in. then monks go there and place objects before various children in the area. The child must choose the objects that belonged to the previous incarnation. In some rare cases parents bring their kids to the monks after they say or do something. But of course in a part of the world with a lot of poverty the monks are scrupulous not to have a child pawned off on them.

His favorite teaching was 'Lust and desire causes pain. Remove lust and desire, and pain is removed'. Translated into Bihari (where the Buddha story took place) it is DHUKH HARAN meaning to remove dukha. Three dozen villages pray to DUKH HARAN Baba. Its clear that DUKH HARAN Baba is none other than the Buddha. Problem is Buddhists are searching only for the Buddha. In the real Vaishali the Buddha begged for alms. The locals there pray to 'BHIKHAINI' Baba (Beggar Baba). Bhikhaini was mispronounced by Buddhists as Bhikshu. Who is BHIKHAINI Baba. The Buddha no doubt. But people are searching for a man called Buddha. In the real Vaishali, in Beluha the Buddha suffered a sickness and felt he had grown old. The locals pray to 'BURHA' Baba (Old Baba). Who is BURHA Baba. The Buddha no doubt. In the real Vaishali the Lichavies pressurized Buddha not to die. They trailed him to Bandagawan pressurizing him not to die. To put pressure in Hindi is DABESHWAR. Three dozen villages around the stupa where Buddha gave the Lichavies his patra, the villagers pray to Baba 'DABESHWAR NATH' meaning the man who won the pressurizing game.

Until 1959, when China cracked down on Tibetan rebels and the Dalai Lama fled to northern India, around 98% of the population was enslaved in serfdom. Drepung monastery, on the outskirts of Lhasa, was one of the world's largest landowners with 185 manors, 25,000 serfs, 300 pastures, and 16,000 herdsmen. High-ranking lamas and secular landowners imposed crippling taxes, forced boys into monastic slavery and pilfered most of the country's wealth - torturing disobedient serfs by gouging out their eyes or severing their hamstrings. Perhaps the reason the Dalai Lama is smiling in all those photos has something to do with the six-figure salary he pulled down from the U.S. government during the 1960s. According to declassified intelligence documents, he earned $180,000 in connection with the CIA's funding of the Tibetan Resistance to the tune of $1.7 million per year.

Lord Buddha was a indian. Buddhism is part of great Sanatan Dharma. Which give birth to Hinduism, Sikhism , Jainism, Buddhism . Earlier Tibet was part of India with a unique identity and culture. During colonial rule, Britishers published a new map of India .in which they divided akhand Bharat into afganistan, Myanmar, Tibet, srilanka . In 1947 during independence India further details divided into pakistan.Tibet was independent. Dalai Lama was there King. But mao zadong attacked Tibet.

So for a bit of recap and asking for explaining. As far as i know. The Dalai Lama we know (Tenzin Gyatso) is still alive. But if this kid is his Reincarnation, does this mean the Dalai Lama is dead? Or something else? See.... i did kind a research that there are two types of Lama. The Dalai Lama, and the Panchen Lama. Now they basically guess each of its reincarnation (Tenzin Gyatso himself was recognized from previous Panchen Lama, and he also was recognized from previous Dalai Lama. Kinda like Tibetan Buddhist long version of Tag game). So i kinda wonder if this kid, is actually Panchen Lama? Since there is also another claim laid by Chinese CCP that they alreasy found a reincarnation of Panchen Lama like. Long long ago.

Sino tibet language derived from northern China around 7000 years ago and probably interacted culture with mongolic people up north during the time. During the tibet emperor days before Buddhism arrived, there seems to be crossing between north and Central Asia between tibet. The facial painting like red face paint and black mask paint around the eyes like zoro mask was popular but most of their cultures have died after conversion to Buddhists. There are many Tibetan sub groups. Southern hill tribe Tibetan descent like lhoba still wear turquoise and feathers. Even naga wear their chokers and feather head with tattoos. The magars of himalyans practice the shaking and drumbeat jingles. There seems to be a new human remain found in red deer cave people in Yunnan pointing to American dna as well.

It's a common practice amongst many religious orders to groom young adolescent children at a very young age (especially young boys), brainwashing them into accepting such abuse being a formal form of discipline, when in truth, it's just to fuel these gey pedos' sexually perverse desires. There's a reason why religious orders are a male only club. And these buddhist monks are no different.
